OK, I have had a thought in the back of my head for a while about the impact gift wrap can have on the Environment. If you’ve read any of my blogs over the years I often rant about Christmas, and how damaging it can be.

Personally I know recyclable paper isn’t that exciting, and any quirky paper is well over budget. So why don’t we go back to the 1990s….

JOTTER WRAPPING! Remember that! Coming into school with a newly wrapped workbook all shiny and new, which you would then scribble all o er and within a few weeks it looked a bit grubby?

Well it’s with this principle I have started to reuse wallpaper samples I get from suppliers, but also I’ve gathered for personal projects from home ware shops that I can reuse in a fun way, to save them going to landfill. Get creative!
